Think the F-150 Raptor is too big? Not to worry...

That truck is called the Ranger and it is the F-150's baby brother. There was never a market for it here on US soil but now in a world with unending "niche" models, Ford has decided to bring it home.
BULL****. Ford didn't update the truck for about a decade too long and knowingly killed it off.

Never a market my ***, then explain why people are still driving their old ones and haven't drank the Kool-aid and bought monster F-150000000x10000s that cost half as much as a house.

Long Live the Ranger:

Agreed 100%. People just went out and bought GM, Nissan, Toyotas. They wanted a little truck and went and bought them

The clips articles said mid to late 2019 but that doesn't sound right. Should have said mid to late 2018 as a 2019 model.

I got tired of waiting and picked up a new JL Wrangler. It's the perfect size. I leased it, so by the time my lease is up maybe the Ranger will have a year under it's belt and we'll know what we're getting.

This is a truck that's rumored to be built this fall, yet even the dealerships have no clue about it. I'm not playing that game with Ford.
